    How can I get life in prison in Denmark for shoplifting? 🤤

    I bet if you killed someone while shoplifting that'll get you close.

    I don't know for other countries but the Swiss image does not represent the reality. Overcrowded and ageing prisons are a big problem.

    Our band spent the night at the Ottawa Jail Hostel once and had a great time! Someone even wrote a song about it but I can't find it now.

    But man, Denmark looks like such a perfect little man cave. I'm jealous now!
